Foreword

Waynesboro High School — an educational institution
where purpose and plan mingle — is many sided and many-
minded.

In what way can such an undertaking of learning and
events be presented to those who would know about it? One
year’s facts and interests as told and shown here seem in¬
adequate, but the happenings of this year and every other
year are links that form the chain that is Waynesboro High
School. Onto this chain are linked, also, the citizens of Way¬
nesboro, who have so well provided a qualified faculty and
good physical facilities, and who join with us in making our
school a center for many community activities.

This Skyline concerns itself with the events and courses
of study of the year 1959, that those of us now here will re¬
member and those who follow will learn.

Mrs. Louise D. Moore

We Shall Remember

It is with pleasure that we, the Class of 1 959, dedicate this Skyline
to Louise Moore.

Mrs. Moore is a devoted teacher with great ability and genuine
interest in her students’ progress. Many full hours of work and
thought go into her teaching, and she unstintingly gives of her time in
individual help. Mrs. Moore’s love for and knowledge of literature
have developed in many students a lasting interest in books. She is a
teacher in the complete sense of the word, and her imprint on us and
our pleasant memories of her classes will remain with us always.

We gratefully thank Mrs. Moore for inspiring and teaching us
and wish for her every happiness.

Mr. J. L. Johnson

The Principal

The person directly responsible for the effective and efficient
functioning of our school every day throughout the year is Mr. J. L.
Johnson. Waynesboro High School is fortunate in having so capable,
honest, sincere , and friendly a principal. In each of his contacts with
students, faculty members, parents, and townspeople, Mr. Johnson
shows a genuine interest in the other person. This interest endears him
to all.

We Seniors thank Mr. Johnson for his unselfish devotion to our
schooling and wish for him continued success and happiness.

School Board Guidance Council

One of the essentials for a good educational
system is a conscientious and trustworthy school
board. We feel that we are extremely fortunate
in having such a school board. Mr. Glenn, Super¬
intendent, Mrs. Cash, Clerk, and the interested
citizens who make up the school board give much
time and thought to the efficient operation of our
public schools, u i .../ n ' , , ,

Guidance is a necessary part of the daily
school program. Mrs. Schneider, faculty mem¬
bers and student leaders meet to discuss guidance
and curriculum problems.

Scheduling according to abilities constitutes
one of the most important guidance duties. Mrs.
Schneider holds private conferences with students
who have need for advice. We appreciate the
good work the guidance council does.

Administration

Both the community and the school have important
goals and duties. The duty of the city of Waynesboro is to
provide beneficial and pleasant living conditions. The fore¬
most goal at Waynesboro High School is to supply the young
people of Waynesboro with an education — a good educa¬
tion. Sound instruction is the business of every school and in
this section of the Skyline we are attempting to show fully
the business of Waynesboro High School.

At the bimonthly meetings of the Waynes¬
boro City Council, plans for city improvement are
discussed and adopted or rejected.

Long sessions of conference often keep
the faculty very busy. Here, Mr. Johnson is
leading a discussion in the living room of the
Home Economics department.

One of the numerous duties of Lynwood
Mitchell, our ever smiling janitor, is window
washing. This large window really shone
after its spring cleaning.

The City Maintenance Department stays extremely
busy keeping the facilities in repair in Waynesboro. This
repair work on West Main Street is a typical example of
the city’s work.

The Main Business At WHS

Graduation from Waynesboro High School requires seventeen Carnegie units of work in the 9th,
10th, 1 1th, and 12th grades. Beginning with the class of ’61, eighteen credits will be required for gradu¬
ation. Changes in graduation requirements are made from year to year by the State Board of Education
and the school to increase the value and efficiency of the school program. A Carnegie unit is given for
each full time subject which meets five times a week, for thirty-six weeks, fifty-five minutes per day.

The courses required for graduation by the State Board are:

English . . . 4 units

American and Virginia History . 1 unit

American and Virginia Government . 1 unit

Mathematics . 1 unit

Science . 1 unit

Health and Physical Education (2 years) .... 1 unit

Electives . 8 units

Waynesboro High School is fully accredited by the Virginia State Board of Education and the
Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. A certificate of membership is issued to those
high schools which meet specified standards of achievement.

On the next pages are shown some typical classroom scenes and some of the courses offered at
Waynesboro High.

Sue Ellen Stanley goes over a test of the
previous day for the benefit of her Algebra
II class. Algebra II is an elective subject.
It furnishes the languages and principal
tools of mathematics.

Solid geometry involves problems in
areas and volumes of pyramids,
prisms, cubes, and spheres. Mr. Gru-
ver explains a solid theorem to his
class as Leroy Kniskern performs the
computation involved.

Gary Givens, Gail Kirby, and Ann Leitch use the re¬
cording and listening facilities to aid them in their
mastery of the French language. This course is con¬
cerned with pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar.

The basic fundamentals of Latin as well as the background
of the Roman civilization are studied in the Latin I and II
courses. Jerry Rhodes and Kathi Gelsleichter write class work
exercises on the board. Such practice is invaluable in the
study of a language.

English IV students, Charles Reid, Rod¬
ney Bradt, and Donald Schmitt use the
high school library as a research center for
term papers. English IV is required of all
seniors. Emphasis is placed upon an under¬
standing and appreciation of the works of
English writers.

John Milhiser, Ricky Fountaine,
Richie Gallaher, and Tom Wright
perform a dissection in their biology
class. This course aims to teach the
pupil about himself, the w'orld
around him, and ways of better liv¬
ing.

Chemistry is closely connected with the progress of the
world, and in this course a study is made of the atomic
theory, balance, electrons, solutions, suspensions, and
metallurgy. Doug Larsen, Corky Coyner, Mr. Payne
and Wayne Lindamood carry out an experiment.

Mr. Gruver demonstrates a principle of physics to his inte¬
rested class. The fundamental laws and principles studied in
this course aid in helping solve many problems of everyday

life.

Mr. Powell finds James Kanney’s
bulletin board title somewhat amus¬
ing. Displays such as this one bring
current events to the attention of the
American and Virginia government
students. This course is a required
subject of all seniors.

Health and physical education provides for phy¬
sical, mental and social growth, and the develop¬
ment of desirable character traits and abilities.
One of Miss Sterrett’s gym classes goes through
its warming-up exercises.

One of the objectives of all sound
education is that of training for home
and family life. Clothing construc¬
tion is included in the home econo¬
mics course. Janet Almarode, Nancy
Craig, Wanda Drumheller, and Jane
Louderback spend their class time
sewing in the well equipped sewing
room of the home economics depart¬
ment.

Sue Robinson, Doug Lambert, and
Dale Lunsford concentrate on their
mechanical drawing assignments. This
study introduces instrument practice,
geometrical construction, lettering,
shape description, isometric sectional
drawing, and free hand sketching.

The boys’ physical education course
includes a balanced program of activi¬
ties which include team sports and
games, body conditioning activities, and
rhythmical and recreational activities.
These boys rebound for the ball dur¬
ing their basketball practice.

General shop, an elective subject, in¬
cludes units in woodwork, machine
shop work, sheet metal work, mechani¬
cal drawing, welding, and household
mechanics. Jerry Tisdale, with the help
of Dick Armstrong, demonstrates the
correct use of the brace and bit, as Mr.
Pidcock, Gary Bradley, Jerry Coffey,
and Billy Wrenn look on.

Shorthand is a highly skilled sub¬
ject and requires a combination of
many skills if the pupil is to be a suc¬
cess. Shelby Wood, Gloria Sharpe,
and Pat Maupin improve their
shorthand by hard practice.

Billy Gordon, Dennie Campbell,
Dallas Marion, and Martha Long
work on their art projects in the
well equipped art department. A
student may elect arts and crafts to
learn to make useful articles, deve¬
lop skills in fine or commercial art,
pursue an interest or hobby, or work
toward a profession.

Typing is an elective subject. Mic¬
key Mantiply, Brenda Zimmerman,
Faye Falls, Pat Ayres, Marjorie
Terrell, Donna Lafferty, George
Short, Joan Fitzgerald, Jo Ann Cox,
Dale Chestnut, and Carol Marion
type one of their daily timed writ¬
ings.

Graduates

Among the many students who are employed
by local merchants are Carleton Hawpe and Bob
Brannon, two of the courteous clerics at Fish-
burne’s Drugstore.

Lou Rader and Paul Gelsleichter, assis¬
tant leaders of Troop 7, aid younger mem¬
bers in the troop in learning rules and
skills of scouting.

Many of the members of the graduating class per¬
form very worthwhile services in and for our commun¬
ity. Both the community and the students benefit from
these activities. We graduates thank the city of Way¬
nesboro and its citizens for the advantages, privileges,
and opportunities they have given us during our years
at Waynesboro High School.

As nurses’ aides, Martha Ann Craig, Marjory
Smith, and Dabney Lipscomb attend local citizens
who donate blood at the Bloodmobile.

Susan Shackelford contributes her time and
her talent to the First Presbyterian Church
as organist for the youth choirs.

Post-Graduate

Outstanding Graduates

The graduating class of 1959 has been very outstand¬
ing in many activities. Many of the seniors participated in
All-State Band, North. Those who attended All-State Band
were Roger Maier, Jimmy Davis, and Leroy Kniskern.
Other seniors participated in All-State Chorus, North. Char¬
les Reid represented our school in All-State Chorus. Seniors
in the business organizations of the school have been recog¬
nized numerous times for their abilities. Five seniors placed
very high on the Merit Scholarship Tests. Leroy Kniskern
was a semi-finalist. Those receiving letters of commendation
were Ann Gordon, Ann Newnham, Louis Rader, and Virgin¬
ia Whitesel. We are very proud of all of our seniors and
hope they will continue to do well in the future years.

Undergraduates

The undergraduates at Waynesboro High School take
an active part in the affairs of our city. Church service, hospi¬
tal work, charity drives, scout work, and other services take
up a good deal of the Juniors’, Sophomores’, Freshmen’s,
and Eighth Graders’ spare time.

As Nurses Aides, Carol Coyner, Suzanne Dun¬
can, and Judy Tressel work at the Waynesboro
Community Hospital snack bar. These juniors
also perform many duties for the patients.

Participation in church activities is very reward¬
ing. Freshmen, Nancy Neet, Ellen Stubblefield,
Doug Woodworth, and Ruth Van Deman, sing in
the First Presbyterian Church Choir.

During the TB Drive Sophomores,
Mary Gordon, Diane Byers, Sally Carlson,
and Judy Totten, collected funds for this
worthy cause.

Eighth grader, Sylvester Bosserman,
delivers papers for the N ews-V irginian.
His courteous service pleases his custo¬
mers.

Juniors

We, the Junior Class, have finally attain¬
ed our goal. At last, we are what we have al¬
ways dreamed of being, members of the
Senior Class, come this fall.

As we pause to look back on our fun-filled
Junior year, we think of those numerous pro¬
jects to raise money j the endless bottle
drives, the selling of the gold and purple
pens, the Junior Variety Show, and our hilar¬
ious “Womanless Wedding”. The end result
was well worth all of our efforts ; the night of
the Junior-Senior Prom came and went while
the stars in our eyes still lingered.

Then came the day when we received our
class rings, and our happiness was complete.
Now, we challenge the Junior Class of 1960
to have as much fun as we did!

The Sophomore Class is looking for¬

been initiated into high school life for two
years. We feel a surge of confidence as we
look forward to our ultimate ambition,
graduation. It has been a long grind, but
we realize its worth as a firm foundation
for our future. We can only hope we fare
as well in the last two years of our educa¬
tion at WHS as we did in the first years.

Our first year at Waynesboro Hi

..... _ \Jl year of

learning, a year of adjustment, and a year of endless wonder and

amazement at the fact that somedafpwe,'^od,^wili be mejnbers of
the graduating class. It has also been a yeai>of fun and excitement,
from the mastery of those locker combination^o the last efcream of
the baseball season. ,

Now we can participate in all of the activities and privileges a
high school student enjoys. We realize, however, the hard work
and responsibilities that accompany these privileges.

Being a member of the Freshman Class of 1959 and knowing
that you are indeed a part of the thrilling world of high school are
experiences of which we shall endeavor to take full advantage.

In September of 1958 several

hundred boys and girls from wj^nesboro

Public

Schools entered Waynesboro High School as eighth graders. These boys and girls
are the third class of eighth graders to attend WHS.

They were allowed to take algebra, Latin, and French, besides their required
courses of English, history, mathematics, general science, and physical education. This
year a new math program was introduced. Students with the time and interest for
outside activities joined some of the high school’s clubs or clubs especially organized
for them, such as the Eighth Grade Science Club and Tri-Hi-Y Club.

Our first year at WHS has been a wonderful one, filled with memories of those
first dances, football and basketball games, and all of our new teachers and friends.
We will try our best in our next four years at Waynesboro High School to follow in
the footsteps of the students who have studied here before us.

Features

Social functions are important parts of the school and
community life. Various dances, theatrical performances and
variety shows add to the entertainment of the students and
the citizens. Civic parades, the Halloween bonfire, and
other activities give the students opportunities to participate
in civic projects.

Twirp Week was climaxed by the Sadie Hawkins Dance. Here
Betty Lacy Lyle, Ginny Summers, Fred Stubblefield, Kirk McAl¬
lister, Pat Kirby, and Penny Pattie are seen enjoying the dance.

The Waynesboro High School majorettes,
pom-pom girls, and band take part in the
community’s annual Fireman’s Parade.

The Junior Class’ Womanless Wed¬
ding proved a hilarious success. Humes
Franklin, William Poats, and Wayne
Grant provide some laughs.

1958 Jr. Variety Show

The Junior Variety Show, “The Devil and West¬
chester High”, of 1958 was given in May. Long
weeks of preparation went into this production to
make it successful. Everyone who participated co¬
operated and had fun. The money from the show was
used to finance the Junior-Senior Prom.

Production points are gone over by Mr. Brown, Adult Di¬
rector; Roger Maier, Student Director; and Ben Cooper.

Lovell Hughson, Alex Bosserman, and Gary

Hayes prepare to go into their singing act.

The Dancing Dolls were an outstanding
group in the production. Sambra Neet, Gin-
ny Whitesel, and Ann Higgins practice their
routine.

Complicated sets and scenes required much adjustment. John
White, Rodney Bradt, and Bob Brannon help out.

195 8 Jr. -Sr. Prom and Banquet

As couples arrived at the gym on the night of May 16, 1958, excla¬
mations of surprise and delight were heard resounding throughout the
gym. This was the Junior-Senior Prom that the juniors had looked forward
to for so long. Glancing around the gym, one could see a beam of pride on
every junior’s face.

The theme of this dance was “Hawaiian Cruise”. Volcanic murals and
lush, tropical scenes filled the gym with a perfect atmosphere for the ju¬
niors’ big night. The wishing pool on the edge of the dance floor provided a
romantic spot for upperclassmen and their dates. A witch doctor lent a my¬
sterious air to one of the corners. The band shell represented a luscious sec¬
tion of a large Hawaiian pineapple.

This was the Juniors’ night, and one they would remember for years
to come.

Hula Girls at Banquet

Hula girls, Juanita Daugherty, Nancy Alford,
Barbara Sours, and Don Hevener provide native
entertainment for the banquet guests.

Seniors at Wishing Well

The typical dance spirit prevalent throughout
the prom is shown by Dawson Watkins, Roger
Maier.

Marjory Smith, Paul Gelsleichter, Dabney
Lipscomb, and Lou Rader gaze into the depths of
the flower-bordered wishing pool.

Dance Spirit

Homecoming Queen

Miss Betty Boyd

Homecoming - 1958

Homecoming was celebrated this year November 6 and 7, by a bonfire, a snake
dance through town, a football game, and a dance. The traditional bonfire and snake dance
were the highlights of the excitement on November 6.

The weather, crisp, clear, and cold, was perfect for such an exciting event as the
Homecoming Game. The dance, sponsored by the Pep Club, was held in the girls’ gym
after the Little Giants’ 34-0 victory over the Rockets of Natural Bridge. The crowded
dance floor was evidence of the excited thoughts of the WHS students.

Betty Boyd, the Homecoming Queen, was escorted to her throne by Pete Year-
out. Betty was crowned by last year’s queen, Helen Alexion. Master David Gordon was
the crownbearer. This was certainly a never- to-be forgotten homecoming for WHS.

Johnson.

Senior Play . . .

One of the highlights of the senior year is the Senior play. The play was chosen by
the Senior Committee in September. After the play books arrived, try-outs began. The cast
was chosen, and it began long hours of rehearsals.

The title of this year’s play was uAh ! Men!” written by Dana Thomas. It was
under the able direction of Mr. Nat Forbes. The cast was as follows: Rodney Bradt,
Vera Burton, Mo Callahan, Virginia Christian, Carleton Hawpe, Claudine Harlow, Ann
Higgins, Roger Maier, Ann Newnham, John Pickford, Eby Sauder, Susan Shackelford,
Beth Stover, John White, Virginia Whitesel, and Phyllis Wright.

The play was presented on November 21 and 22 after many long hours of work
by all who were concerned with the production. We feel the play was very successful j the
money received from the play was used to help finance the senior trip.

Vera Burton; Martha Ann Craig; Susan Shackelford; Virginia Christian; Brenda Kerby;
Beth Stover.

Ah! Men

Mr. Forbes, our patient director, gives stage directions
to Susan Shackelford as Virginia Whitesel looks on. This
dress rehearsal was one of the final ones just before the per¬
formance nights.

Don’t drop your end! Lou Rader
and Tom Ellington help assemble

plentiful backstage.

Let’s hope these wires are connected correctly.

Mike McCartney makes last minute adjustments to
his elaborate teleray.

A Successful Ti oirp Week

Pat Kirby and Sue Robinson carry double loads of books
— their own and Tom Ellington’s and Jan Marion’s. Taking
books to class was one of the duties (or chores) which the
girls performed for the boys during Twirp Week.

The attire worn to the Sadie Hawkins Dance at the
close of Twirp Week was unusual to say the least! The
attendance at the dance was very good.

Twirp Week, sponsored by the Beta
Club, was held again this year in Novem¬
ber. The chairman of the committee was
Ann Higgins with Maureen Callahan, Pat
Kirby, Lucy Lawler, and Jean Wells as
committee members.

The word TWIRP means, “The Wo¬
man Is Requested to Pay.” During the
week the boys relaxed while the girls treat¬
ed them royally. The week was climaxed
by a Sadie Hawkins’ Dance. The chairman
of the dance committee was Vera Burton.

Donnie Dobbins was honored as King of the
Sadie Hawkins Dance. Betty Boyd crowns him as
attendants Betty Lacy Lyle, and Kirk McAllister
look on.

Senior Committee

Penny Pattie; Mr. Forbes; Butch Berry; Bob Brannon; Carleton

Sr. Calling Cards
and Invitations

This year the Sr. Committee chose the graduation in¬
vitations, and the Seniors themselves chose their calling
cards. The late Mr. W. O. Day shows Gary Hayes and
Alex Bosserman his new line of rings after they have fill¬
ed out their calling card order blanks.

Sr. Skating Party

Skating parties were a very popular form of recreation
and lucrative way of raising funds for the Senior Trip.
Donnie Dobbins, Betty Lyle, Wayne Cash, and Patsy
Merica take a turn around the rink.

Forensic Winners

Row 1: Virginia Whitesel, Affir. Debate Team; Carol Wylie, Poetry Reading; Jean Wells, Spelling; Virginia Summers,
Girls’ Public Speaking; Shirley Critzer, Girls’ Prose Reading.

Row 2 : Jim Farinholt, Affir. Debate Team; Dawson Watkins, Neg. Debate Team; Ben Cooper, Neg. Debate Team; Mar¬
shall Coleman, Boys’ Prose Reading; Lou Rader, Boys’ Public Speaking.

Each year the first of March, the big topic of interest around Waynesboro
High School is the Forensic competition. Contests are held in all five grades in
prose reading, poetry reading, public speaking, and spelling. The events are spon¬
sored by the English department and winners are chosen from each of the individual
classes to compete with the other winners in their respective grades.

The best speeches from the eighth, ninth, and tenth grade classes were given
in an assembly for underclassmen. The winners from the underclassmen competed
with the winners from the Junior and Senior classes in an assembly for upper class-
men. Then one boy and one girl were chosen from this group to represent the school
at the District Forensics meet.

Speeches were judged by members of the faculty. Points considered were
topic, originality, content, and delivery. The winners in the poetry reading, prose
reading, and spelling were picked in after- school competition.

Organizations

Clubs and organizations constitute an important part of
school and community life. Through these school and civic
organizations many worthwhile services and projects are car¬
ried out. These services range from collecting funds to help
the poor, to presenting programs for cultural enjoyment.

The Kiwanis Club is one of the city’s most active
service clubs. Their annual minstrel is enjoyed by
many citizens ; funds go for the baby clinic and the
underprivileged children’s camp.

Patsy Martin, Nancy Critzer, and other members of the F. H.
A. Club served refreshments to the faculty at some of their meet¬
ings. Mrs. White seems very happy about the prospect of such good
refreshments.

The Confederettes, headed by Ginny Whitesel, provided ev-
tremely entertaining half-time shows during basketball season.

The Lions Club sponsors a horse show each year
to raise money for their community projects. Bill
Showalter, a Lion, awards a ribbon to one of the class

winners.

The Alpha Tri Hi Y strives to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school
and community high standards of Christian character.

Community projects of the club include making favors for the nursing home, fur¬
nishing milk for needy children making Chri stmas baskets for a needy family, going
Christmas caroling, and ushering at the AAUW puppet show. School activities are form¬
ing an eighth grade Tri Hi Y, giving to World Service, and raising money with bottle
drives and bake sales.

Debating Club

The Debating Club has just finished its first, and very successful year at Waynes¬
boro High School. This club was formed by a group of students interested in discussing
and debating on various topics. The club, sponsored by Mr. John Brown, has studied in
detail, the rules of debating and of discussion.

Although the club was relatively small this year, it has proven to be quite popular
and will probably increase in membership as more students come to know its activities.
This year many of the members of the Debating Club have given classroom debates for
their projects.

The Debating Club certainly deserves a great deal of recognition for increasing the
enthusiasm among Waynesboro High School students for debates and intelligent discus¬
sions.

The activities of the year include promoting “Careers in Retailing Week” in Way¬
nesboro and giving an assembly program in w hich retailing as a career is advertised. Ap¬
pearing before civic groups, attending District and State Conventions, and helping a needy
family at Christmas consume much of the club’s time.

The D.E. Club of Waynesboro was successful in winning the District Honor Club
Award. Larry Hamilton, the president of th e club this year, won the District Honor Stu¬
dent Award. First place in the state competition for the Merchandise Presentation Award
was won by Pat Barnes at. the district meet in Staunton. Pat went even further to win the
trophy and second place in the national meeting in Ohio.

The Diversified Occupations Club under the direction of Mr. Tolley enables stu¬
dents to maintain a job and at the same time, receive a complete High School Education.
It also provides a social outlet for students who do not have time to enter into regular
high school activities. The members of the Diversified Occupations Club take part in the
regular school schedule in the morning and work for a local firm in the afternoon.

The purposes of the club are to provide the local employers with better employees,
to acquaint the businesses of Waynesboro with the program of the high school, and to pro¬
mote a profitable relationship between the employer and employee.

Each year the members attend a District and a State Convention. At the beginning
of the school year the Diversified Occupations Club presented a panel discussion to the
school, the object of which was to familiarize the students with the possibilities of em¬
ployment during the school session.

Future Business Leaders of America

The Future Business Leaders of America Club is one of the most active clubs in
our school. It was rated one of the ten top chapters in the United States, took part in the
National Convention, and had its sponsor, Mrs. Claire Craun, voted “Sponsor of the Year”
at the State Convention.

The FBLA strives to strengthen the confidence of young men and women in them¬
selves and their work, thereby developing competent, agressive business leadership. Its
members work with local businessmen to encourage others to develop individual projects,
and to establish themselves in business, and to create more interest and understanding in the
intelligent choice of business occupations. To arouse interest in home and community im¬
provement, the FBLA participates in worthy business and community projects.

Each year, some members of the FBLA attend Leadership Training Conference and
Regional, State, and National discussion groups. Meeting programs include business films,
speakers, and visits to local offices. The five types of FBLA activities are those that in¬
crease business knowledge and skill, school and community service, financial drives, social
activities, and the organization of new chapters.

The Future Homemakers of America Club is a national organization of pupils
studying homemaking in senior high schools of the United States and territories. It of¬
fers opportunity for the further development of personal initiative in planning and carry¬
ing out activities related to homemaking.

This organization brings together local, country, and state groups interested in,
and working toward better home and family living, provides opportunities to share in solv¬
ing problems important to homelife, and sponsors group projects, local, state, and national
in scope.

These girls serve refreshments to the teachers at their faculty meeting each month
and act as hostesses for teachers’ banquets, P. T.A. meetings, career night, and evaluation
committees. At Waynesboro High School the Future Homemakers of America plan and
plant gardens, make a cookbook, and plan menus for luncheons. The FHA Club sends re¬
presentatives to the State convention in Roan oke and entertains the mothers of the mem¬
bers at the international dinner.

The club’s motto is “Toward New Horizons.”-

Future Teachers of America

The Future Teachers of America Club is a relatively new club in our school, but
already it has placed itself among the better known clubs at WHS. The club, which was
started in the spring of nineteen fifty-six, is for students who are interested in the teaching
profession.

During their study halls, the members of the Future Teachers Club are allowed to
teach in grades one through seven at Jackson-Wilson grade school. These future teachers
conduct classes in math, spelling, English, history, and music.

The club holds its meetings once a month and planned programs on teaching as
a profession are presented. Each year several of the members and their sponsor attend the
Future Teachers of America Convention in Richmond.

Giant Steps Staff

Giant Stefs is our school’s new literary maga¬
zine. After an unsuccessful year with Valley Vibra¬
tions, our old newspaper, the staff decided to try
a new type of literary magazine entitled “Giant
Steps.” The magazine is composed of stories,
poems, and essays written by the students of Way¬
nesboro High School. These articles are chosen by
the staff, which is under the direction of Miss
Freeman. There is usually an extra section such as
“Outstanding Seniors”. The staff, headed by Sam¬
bra Neet, receives much help from the journalism
class.

In future years the staff will try to improve
their publication.

^Jnter-Club Council

•Jij

^ A 9 >V

^ntfeV^Club Council is a new organization formed by the Student Council As-
oci^tion. Thq council is composed of a representative member from each of the clubs in
ay^esbonAHigh School. At the meetings each member reports on the activities and
|eial oppjects of his club. The council works to coordinate the activities of the various
bs and prevent overlapping of purposes.

This year the Inter-Club Council is working on a new point system for club mem¬
bers. It is designed to keep students from becoming too overburdened with club activities.
Under this system a student is given a certain number of points for membership in a club
and added points for any office held. When a student’s points add up to nineteen, he may
join no more clubs.

The Inter-Club Council, though comparatively new, promises to be a great help
in promoting harmonious council relations among the various clubs in our school.

Key Club

The Key Club, in order to develop initiative and leadership, provides experience
in living and working together to serve the school and community. The work of the club
in social, religious, and athletic fields aids its members in preparing for useful citizenship.

The Key Club is sponsored by the Kiwanis Club, and each week two members at¬
tend the Kiwanis meeting.

The year’s activities include giving a Christmas dance, attending the Key Club
convention, and assisting in many community projects such as collecting donations for the
March of Dimes and the United Community Fund.

Latin Clubs

The Latin I, Latin II, and Amici Clubs have completed a very successful year.
Since interest was shown to start another Latin Club, the Amici Club was established for
those students who have taken at least one year of Latin.

Perhaps one of the most important events which they participated in this year was
the State Latin Convention. The Waynesboro Latin Clubs played host to twenty-five
other clubs from all parts of Virginia. An interesting program, planned by Penny Part¬
ridge, State Vice President, was presented. Election of the new officers were held at this
meeting.

In many projects the Latin Clubs work together. They have sponsored the
Thanksgiving Dance and participated in other money-making projects. Each club donated
a book to the library for the use of the entire student body.

The aim of the clubs is to promote cultural understanding of the Latin language
and its civilization. It also encourages students to take Latin.

Library Club

To promote a greater interest among the stu¬
dents in libraries and library service, the Library
Club works to improve the library program with¬
in the school, to stimulate reading interests, and
to encourage interest in library work as a career.

Christmas finds the members of the club very
busy as they make Christmas favors for the Way¬
nesboro Community Hospital and sponsor a
Christmas party. Most of the members, who work
as assistants in the library during one period each
day, donate at least one book to the library and
provide some type of publicity during National
Library Week and Book Week. An assembly spon¬
sored by the Library Club completes its functions
and terminates its fine job.

National Beta Club

The National Beta Club is an honor society composed of Junior and Seniors who
have maintained a B average throughout their high school class work. It promotes leader¬
ship, academic achievement, and the preservation of desirable character. This organization
has as its colors old gold and black. The motto of the club “Ducamus Allis Serviendo”
(Let us lead by serving others), indicates the inner purposes of the club. These purposes
are to encourage effort, to reward merit, and to inspire and assist students to continue their
education after high school graduation.

Among the activities of the Beta Club are the Faculty-Student basketball game,
the Beta Club Convention in Richmond, an assembly program, and the compiling of
the Honor Roll each six weeks.

A new project of the Beta Club is its annual “Twirp Week”, during which the
girls throughout the school perform the boy’s duties. Twirp Week is terminated by the
Sadie Hawkins Dance for which the students dress in typical “dogpatch” costumes.

Pep Club

This year for the first time the Pep Club elected a boy as President of the Club
and, therefore, encouraged the membership of both boys and girls in the club and their en¬
thusiasm at school games.

The primary aim of the Pep Club is to stimulate school spirit and good sportsman¬
ship. To carry out this aim the members of the Pep Club form a cheering section at the
games and join the cheerleaders in spurring our teams to victory. Other activities in¬
clude making shakers and selling them at the games and decorating the goal posts before
games. The Pep Club sponsors a Homecoming Dance. Members of the student body
elect a queen and a court to be escorted by members of the football team and to reign over
the memorable occasion.

This year the Pep Club has succeeded in promoting good school spirit and in pro¬
moting “pep” in all school activities. Congratulations to those enthusiastic members.

are the Skyline’s new type of cover and special curriculum
section. The theme, the school as the center of the commun¬
ity, is carried out by showing various students at work
throughout our community and city activities that correspond
with school activities.

The Skyline has gone back to the regular order of pic¬
tures after the inverted order of last year. The convenience
of a local printer has aided the staff in improving the over¬
all content and appearance of the annual.

Each year the assistant editor and several members of
the coming year’s staff attend the Southern Interscholastic
Press Association Convention in Lexington with the spon¬
sor, Mr. Scott. The annual is graded and receives a score
and advice on improvements.

The Skyline staff will endeavor to improve and enlarge
its annual.

As a representative of the student body, the Student
Co-operative Association works to coordinate the relationship
between the students and faculty and to solve any problems
which may arise among the students.

Representatives are chosen by the homerooms. The of¬
ficers include a president, a senior} a vice president, a ju¬
nior} a secretary, a senior; a treasurer, a sophomore. Selected
by the president from either the members of the council or
from the student body are the chaplain, the Parliamentarian
the Reporter, and the Sergeant-at-Arms.

Some of the routine functions of the council are to pro¬
vide morning devotions, sponsor the Honor Committee and
attend the meeting of the Natural Bridge District Schools.

A new project of the council is the initiation of the
Marshal Committee, a committee composed of outstanding
members of the Junior Class who conduct members of the
student body to assemblies and usher at school functions.
“Operation Santa Clause” raised sixty-five dollars for
Christmas gifts for a needy family.

Thespian Society

The Thespian Society aims to interest the students of Waynesboro High School in
dramatic interpretation upon the stage. As members of the State Thespian Society the club
also strives to create an interest in the State Thespian Society for college and further ad¬
vancement in dramatic productions. Experience in scenery production, make-up, stage and
personal properties, lighting, and sound effects is offered to the members.

This year the efforts of the Thespian Society will go toward the purchase of a
make-up kit. Another project of the club is the presentation of a one-act and a three-act
radio play.

“A Night in the Theatre” was presented in October. Included in the program were
a one-act play, “Strange Road”; a radio play, “Air Raid”; a pantomine; and several
monologues. The play “Strange Road” was given again at a P.T.S.A. meeting and was en¬
tered in the Virginia High School League Drama contest. The three-act comedy “The
Importance of Being Earnest” was the Thespian Society’s spring production.

at each and every athletic event was inspiring to both players and spectators.

Through long hours of practice this group of girls added many new cheers to

N[V ia

The Waynesboro High School Choral
Club has raised its standards this year by ad¬
ding a written program to its customary ac¬
tivities, and presenting the theory of music
and music appreciation at least once a week.
It has stressed good tonal quality, true in¬
tonation, clear enunciation, correct pronuncia¬
tion, and good rhythm and phrasing. Mrs.
Reynolds has also given opportunities for
small ensembles as well as for solo perfor¬
mances.

Sports

Both Waynesboro and its high school are very sports-
minded. Attendance and support at all athletic events, civic
or school, are extremely gratifying. The townfolk and the
school administrators realize the value of organized sports
competition.

Football season at Waynesboro High School was an exciting time for
many Waynesboro fans. Our tacklers prepare to down a Lexington oppo¬
nent.

YMCA League competition was very
heavy this year. Butch Berry tries for two
points during a league game.

The Little Giants of Waynesboro High School had
an extremely good basketball record. Ellington and Har¬
ris rebound in the tournament game against Staunton.

The city Little League teams had a very active and re¬
warding season.

Although the Junior Varsity Team had a slim schedule this year, they undoubtedly
achieved the experience necessary for the step to the varsity team. With a record of four
wins and two losses. The jayvees proved capable of handling their opponents very satis¬
factorily. In losing, the scores of the opposition were not overwhelming, but this fact only
proved that these games could have gone either way. Most of these boys will be playing
varsity next year and should help the Little Giants in their quest for the District Champ¬
ionship.

Giants , Young But Strong

Row 1: Poochie Harris; Pete Yearout; Butch Tyree; Ronnie Knicely; Humes Franklin; Doug Larsen; Danny Woodworth.
Row 2: Tom Ellington; Walter Noell; Doug Gordon; Wayne Grant; Ronnie Via; Fred Stubblefield; George Gillock; John
Harman.

The Little Giants of 1960 will have the same team that
posted an excellent fourteen and six record during 1959. The
team only lost four games to District 5 opponents ; two of
these were lost to State runner-up Buena Vista. This shows
the ability that next year’s team will have after 1959 season
of experience. Experience is a main factor in winning games,
but the Little Giants seemed to forget that and constantly
edged their unsuspecting opponents.

There was fast and furious action with many close calls.
All in all, it was a highly successful season and all these boys
will be back for another try for the District Championship.

Rex Downey, the coach, has shown his coaching ability
in the excellent showing that his team has made this year.

Tyree (11) is up for two points with a left-handed jump shot as
Wilson’s Hank Conner vainly attempts to block it.

Furious rebounding action was an important part of
this game. Ronnie Via (15) and Staunton’s Wayne
Brinkley (31) and Robbie Knowles (30) go up for this
one.

Surrounded by two of Lexington’s players, Wayne Grant
finds it hard to get this one. Walt Noell (10) and Ronnie Via
(15) are prepared to help.

Junior Varsity Basketball

The Waynesboro J.V. Giants, as usual, had a very suc¬
cessful season. The winning trend that the J.V.’s have fol¬
lowed in the past continued this year. Although they drop¬
ped a few games this season by close margins, they will be
back next year as strong as ever. This team should give some
of its talent to the varsity team.

Coach Gruver has worked patiently and diligently in
shaping his boys into a well coordinated unit.

Varsity Basketball Team

Long hours of dribbling, shooting, and running resulted in an improved Varsity
team this year. Their record was four wins to seven losses, but they had two hotly con¬
tested games that went into over-time. The team played well as a team and three regulars
will return next year.

Mrs. Stanley’s coaching skill and Marsha Freed’s ability as a manager gave the
team the encouragement and drive to work hard.

The Baby Amazons turned in a good record this year with five wins to three
losses. The Amazons were nervous at the beginning of the season but they soon settled
down to playing smoothly and skillfully. Asa feeder team to the varsity, they will pro¬
vide some talented players in the future.

game.
